 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-All of the following functions are deprecated from OpenSSL 1.1.0. No explicit
-initialisation or de-initialisation is necessary. See L<OPENSSL_init_crypto(3)>
-and L<OPENSSL_init_ssl(3)>.
-
 ERR_load_crypto_strings() registers the error strings for all
 B<libcrypto> functions. SSL_load_error_strings() does the same,
 but also registers the B<libssl> error strings.
 
-In versions of OpenSSL prior to 1.1.0 ERR_free_strings() freed all previously
-loaded error strings. However from OpenSSL 1.1.0 it does nothing.
+In versions prior to OpenSSL 1.1.0,
+ERR_free_strings() releases any resources created by the above functions.
